I spoke to the owner of this car first in the late 90's, and, he is a great guy. He has owned it since about 1980, and, has original paperwork from Bill Thomas, where the original owner ordered the car to be built as a Stage III Nickey Camaro. It had, and still has, original stickers from both Nickey and Bill Thomas Engineering. The hood was installed by Thomas, along with the Nickey emblems, and, a Nickey dealer sticker. The scoops on the hood are open in both the front and rear. Terry Hatcher would say it's real, and, it's awesome!

What? Are you saying a Camaro ordered through, built and sold by Bill Thomas came with Nickey stickers, emblems and paperwork?

A really neat car to say the least. Surprised it is not in your stable, or Bimbis.

I think its cool the car doesn't have spoilers.

I wanted to blow it up enough to see if I could read the decals on the 1/4 windows. They may have been Thomas decals.
I grew up in Vancouver, B.C.,and don't think I had ever seen a Nickey, Yenko, or Motion car before this, and that's why I took more than one photo. It had a pretty healthy idle to it too.

If you are looking at the ones in the drivers quarter window, I was thinking these were maybe some early ISCA show car decals.
